Book: Fabric Painting
This book contains 40 pages of step-by-step instructions covering 18 different techniques for fabric painting, plus many variations! Not found in stores or anywhere online except this website, it features a hard spiral binding, which can be opened and reclosed easily if you want to put some or all pages in your own plastic sheet protectors for use outside while painting. This makes the book a perfect instructional resource while you are painting, without getting paint on the pages! You can return the pages to the original spiral binding at any time. The book opens flat and stays that way, even if you turn the prior pages all the way around to the back. Printed on premium paper, single-sided, there are 6 color pages showcasing examples of all 18 techniques, along with loads of high-quality black & white photos to walk you through each step.
Click here to see the Table of Contents, which includes a list of all 18 techniques.

Heavy-Duty Wonder Under fusible web, by Pellon
This paper-backed fusible web is the only brand that I use for my fabric decollage techniques, and I've tried them all! However, I do not use it the way that the manufacturer recommends; there is a better way! Detailed instructions for my fusing special method are outlined (with photos) in my Butterfly Bouquet & Garden Wallhanging Pattern and are taught in my classes. 17" wide, as many yards as you'd like! $3.75 per yard.
Applique Pressing Sheet, by Bear Thread Designs
This is an 18"x20" Teflon pressing sheet, similar to the ones used in baking to line cookie sheets. Also used for some applique techniques. With fabric decollage, it's used to protect your ironing board and iron from getting excess fusible web on them. Directions come in the package, rolled up with the sheet. Just make a "sandwich" by placing the Applique Pressing Sheet on your ironing board, on one half of the sheet, then put your fabric and fusible web on top of that, and then fold the other half of the sheet over the top. It won't melt! It's thick and doesn't tear like the thin ones often do. $20.99
Vue-Thru Press Cloths, by Dritz
There are 2 in each package, 13"x30" size. These press cloths are see-through, similar to cheesecloth but thicker and stiffer. I use them to cover my fabric decollage just before the final steaming process, so I can see if any of the tiny fabric pieces have shifted before they're ironed down. (Not a pretty site to have your tree ironed on sideways -- permanently!) It also prevents any fusible residue on my iron from getting on my finished decollage. Call it "insurance" against last-minute errors! If any fusible gets on these press cloths, they can be washed and ironed with starch, so they're reusable. $7.79 per package.
Hot Iron Cleaner
This product comes in a tube and is great for removing fusible residue or starch build-up off your iron. Read the manufacturer's directions carefully, then squeeze some cleaner onto a stack of folded-up paper towels that you've laid on the ironing board. When your dry iron is hot (no steam!), carefully rub it back and forth over the cleaner-coated paper towels. Then, be sure to wipe off all excess iron cleaner before ironing any more fabric. (Use a fabric scrap for this, or clean paper towels.) Works like a charm, as long as your iron is hot! Don't clean your iron when there is water in it; always dump the water out of it first and have the steam function turned off. I've never burned myself doing this, and you won't either, if you're very careful and follow the manufacturer's directions. $6.50

Freezer Paper Sheets, by C.Jenkins
These freezer paper sheets are 8-1/2"x11", ready to go through an inkjet printer to print out your applique designs or other designs. You can scan in the templates from my Butterfly Bouquet/Garden or Fantasy Fish Patterns and print them out directly on these freezer paper sheets. Then iron the shiny side of the freezer paper templates to the back side of your fused fabric as instructed in the patterns, and you're ready to cut out your fabric pieces. It's that easy! You can also draw designs directly on the dull side of the paper and iron them to fabric. The best thing about freezer paper sheets is that they lay flat, unlike freezer paper that comes on a roll. Some brands of these freezer paper sheets are very thin and do not adhere well to fabric, but these sheets are thicker than other brands I've tried. 50 sheets per package makes them economical too! $7.95 per package.
Sewline Fabric Pencil, white
Most of us have pencils that work well for marking on light colored fabrics, but marking on dark fabrics can be a challenge. In this wonderful pencil that works just like any other mechanical pencil, specially formulated lead gives a very thin, clean line on dark fabric. The drawn lines can be easily removed with the eraser at the top of the pencil, or with a damp cloth. It has a gel cushion around the pencil where it is held for comfort, and the package comes with a container of 5 extra leads that are easy to refill, just like any mechanical pencil you have used. More lead refills and eraser refills are available. $15.95 each.
